For the past several years I’ve been doing a year-end wrap-up of some of the best books I’ve read during the year. Usually it’s a top 10 list with a few extras thrown in. (One of last year’s honorable mentions was
As Bright As Heaven By Susan Meisner. It was more timely than I ever could have imagined, because its topic is the 1918 pandemic. As we live out our own pandemic, I would highly recommend this one again.)
This year, I’ve had lots of time to read since there wasn’t much else I could do. (No commuting and many of my regular activities curtailed by COVID-19.) So I’m presenting 20 of the best books that I have read. (BTW: Four of the books on my list were also on President Obama’s list…someone has good taste.)
